Consider it a freebie. I have higher aspirations.

Now I know why I don't post more pictures of myself on this thread.

And after some deliberation, I think it's time to add a fifth rule to the caption contest...

With that said, first place goes to...

Second place goes to...

(I feel I have to put a note in here. First off, you can't update the RTS after the match with the Hatch system. The handhelds still work, but the screen doesn't update--meaning that if you miss a goal that makes a row, you're up the proverbial creek until the video guy pulls it down. Second, I was sleeping like a baby at 9:37 PM on Friday night.)

We all know what this means, boys and girls! Billfred gets to take a B.O. Timeout in the FIRST Defunkification Chamber - sponsored by Degree for Men, the official antiperspirant of FIRST.

We salute you, Mr. Odoriferous Emanations Inspector, for without your ever-vigilant nostrils, hundreds of nasally-offended spectators would make this FIRST Championship Event their LAST.

*Cue Real Men of Genius singer....*

"Mr. Odoriferous Emanations Inspeeeeeectorrrrrrrrrr....."

(It was the defunkification that did it.)

Not according to the time stamp on the photograph - are you saying that photos in the caption contest are not entirely accurate? I thought this contest was on the level. I feel so used! How can I come up with another clever and witty caption when in the back of my mind I'll be questioning the validity of each photo?

<suddenly remembers the power of negative infinity>

Oh, sorry Billfred, my bad.

[Billfred]

The picture is for real. The timestamp is just off--you'd want to pester Ryan to get his clock right on his camera.

(By the way, Gary, I read signatures. Double )
